The Essential Automotive Duty of Care Vehicle Check & Report
Are YOU Doing Enough to Safeguard Yourself ?
You identify a dangerous item on the car you are working on, you report it to the customer and give them a price to rectify it, but they say "No Thanks"
You might even warn them that the car is illegal and should not be driven -
They come to collect their car and drive it away, you are not within your rights to hold onto it and the price you gave was fair
A few miles down the road they are involved in an accident (God forbid it should be fatal !), the police arrive and for sure, this is going to end up in court with Dangerous Driving Charges
YOU Will Be Questioned and required to go to court -
You are the Professionals; their legal representation is going to try to prove you didn't warn them or they didn't understand you correctly, you didn't do enough !
Hopefully you can find evidence to show you acted with a Duty of Care with a Duty of Care Vehicle Check & Report and you can prove it because, your insurance will require it, and You May Be Found Liable if not ! The damages and costs, not to mention your reputation, is unthinkable !
It Might be Time to Review Your Processes !
